Light-front QED1+1 at finite temperature.

2008 
We investigate the thermodynamic properties of quantum electrodynamics in 1+1 dimensions. We derive the partition function of the canonical ensemble in discrete light cone quantization and calculate the thermodynamical potential. This central quantity is evaluated for different system sizes and coupling strengths. We investigate the continuum limit and the thermodynamical limit and present basic thermodynamical quantities as a function of temperature for the interacting system. The results are compared to the idealized cases.
